[Intro]
'Tis What 'Tis
Know what I mean?
Feeling like a new man right now
Straight up and down, 12:30 baby
It was waiting for me
Apologies for the tardiness, ha!
[Verse 1]
(Yeah) Charles Darwin was buried in a church (aha, aha)
Her attitude's as heavy as a purse
Life's brevity, pennies for your words
The pendulum is steady as the nerves of the shakra, ha
Let you know what it is without a telepromter
Hard to tell a fella not to sell sriracha while you watch him shooting missiles, smoking a stogie, laughing maniacally, while barely hanging off of this helicopter
Paint sceneries, the black Bob Ross, you're not wild sauce, loss, more than half y'all suck
So write how I got thee, might not be the Anunaki
But I and I crack the code of Hammurabi
I be damned if I spend another minute thinking how I'm committed
By asylum, write down the line and until I double up, yup
"Hows the Cheerios, ello Gov'na"
With the propaganda, cue the scandal
[Chorus]
I made a promise to myself, when I was broke
That I strayed from looking down and started aiming for the throat
You can call me sink or swim, and I'ma float
Cuz' I ain't using my energy until I'm on the boat
Got some weed and I'ma smoke
Pouring whiskey then I'm sipping
Throw it back getting tipsy then I'm sinking
Shit I ain't even think I need a refresh
(Ha) I need a refresh
[Verse 2]
Off the plane to the rhythms of steel drums
Badman stepping out with the steel post
Making brass decisions thinking you still young
Every politician is itching to steal votes
Shaquille O'Neal knows and so does John Henry
Who died raging against the machine
Not depending on something to do something for ya
Dug that, then we struck oil, oh yeah
But they get cans of Goya
[?]
On Mama's empanadas, make it stretch like mozzarella
Pull up, rewind, selecta
Nothings off the record getting everybody lit
This that Beatnik test
If so meet me at Vanessa's, or the Mecca, either way it do
Main ingredient: everybody plays a fool
Sometimes but I try to keep my third eye on that sabertooth
Hold the unobtainable, ay
[Chorus]
I made a promise to myself, when I was broke
That I strayed from looking down and started aiming for the throat
You can call me sink or swim, and I'ma float
Cuz' I ain't using my energy until I'm on the boat
Got some weed and I'ma smoke
Pouring whiskey then I'm sipping
Throw it back getting tipsy then I'm sinking
Shit I ain't even think I need a refresh, ha
Hot damn, I need a refresh, ha ha
[Outro]
That's alright with me
Long as we living I ain't worried for a minute bout a critic
That's alright with me
Long as we living I ain't worried for a minute bout a critic
That's alright with me
Long as we living I ain't worried for a minute bout a critic
That's alright with me, long as we living
L-l-long ya-ya-ya-yup
